We have been extremely happy with Scott Fraser for the last seven years. They advised us in the selection and purchase of a house to rent out in Oxford, and assisted in the furnishing of the property for tenants. They have found excellent tenants over the years, kept us informed while dealing with any repairs etc efficiently and cost-effectively. We have always found them to be responsive, friendly and fair, with a genuine desire to provide a positive experience for both landlord and tenant. We ... read full review

Comment on agent fees

We find their fees very reasonable, particularly given the checks and reports they send regularly, and the responsiveness of their service.

We have recently sold our house in Summertown and bought in Witney. Patrick has guided us through the whole process. He was professional throughout and always quick to respond to our questions. We would definitely, and in fact already have, recommend Scott Fraser.... read full review

It was a pleasure to work with Emily, Zoe and the others of the ScottFraser team. Emily and Zoe were so helpful and efficient âÂ€Â“ completely easy to get hold of, always got back straight away if I had questions, gave useful and balanced advice, radiated genuineness and honesty. I was very impressed also with how ready Emily was to adapt to some particular requests that I made, with regard to the lease and deposit. They really took the stress out of finding a new tenant!.... read full review

Great service from the Scott Fraser team - especially Oliver who was looking after us.
There was always someone to take a message and these were acted on in good time and we never felt forgotton (as we have in past years with other agents).... read full review

Comment on agent fees

Real agents fees will always be more than the on-line services, but well worth the money to get helpful, attentive and polite service - nothing was too much trouble.

I have been letting my home in Oxford through Scott Frazer for the last 4 years and the service has been accurate, friedly, and professional. In the last couple of years I have been dealikng with Zoe and Emily who have been extremely prefessional in particular when facing difficulties with the renting market. Scott Fraser gave me 4 years of peace of mind about my home while I was abroad and it is what a owner looks for... read full review

Really great service thoughout the sale of the flat. All the members of the staff were helpful and courteous at all times, and coped with delays and last minute requests with complete professionalism. Thank you!... read full review

A very challenging house sale journey (9 months, 3 buyers) but Nicola and co were proactive and helpful throughout. The sale fell through twice - buyer pulling out at the last minute or being made redundant.. After each time, we accepted offers within a week of going back on the market. We achieved a good sale finally.... read full review

We have one 4-bed town house property located at Oxford's most sought-after area in north Oxford. It was bought a couple of years ago from Scott Fraser and managed by Scott Fraser since then. We reckon Scott Fraser on Banbury Road is an excellent agent for various reasons: 1. it provide high quality of management service both to us as a landlord and to our tenants; 2. its staff are professional as well as work-effective. The most impressive one of the examples was a few week ago, the strong win... read full review

Emily and Zoe were very organised on both occasions that we used them to rent our flat. Chris Carter the property manager has also been a help too. We chose them because they were very competitive on price for the managed service they were offering in comparison to the other lettings agents and have delivered on both occasions. They provide a personal service and have been easily contactable if needed. Scott Fraser have been good at finding us suitable tenants and we would thoroughly recommend t... read full review

We bought our flat in Oxford through Scott Fraser and have let it through them for the last 15 years. We chose them because we thought they would provide a personal service and we have not been disappointed.
We have always found them very easy and straightforward to deal with, most efficient and keep you in touch with what it going on. You can see your account on-line (not the case with an agent we use elsewhere). Necessary repairs are dealt with promptly and at reasonable rates.

Scott Fraser have managed our property in Oxford since mid 2000. Over that time we have had regular updates on the state of the property. All maintenance has been attended to appropriately and with a minimum of fuss. Naturally over such a period there have been numerous changes of tenants. We have always had good tenants and have hardly had a vacant month. We've been kept informed and all the paperwork has been done in a smooth and timely manner.... read full review

Find tenants, deal with references; personal and financial and all paper work. Deal with required regulations and certifications.

Karen Wrigley has accompanied us during the whole process of purchasing our Willowbrook property. She has been very forthcoming, making us feel at ease and in control even in situations which objectively were tense. She helped us understand different stages in the general development, she represented our particular wishes, and in general, was the main force driving the process forward.
We are very thankful to Karen and would recommend her very professional services to anybody who consider... read full review

Scott Fraser were excellent in the follow up and providing us properties to look at that met our requirements. Zoe is great to deal with - efficient, professional but also with a very friendly and collaborative approach. Since moving in we have had a few dealings with Chris and his team and again have been very impressed with the high levels of service from Scott Fraser.... read full review

Zoe has been very helpful and always available. So far, every little thing we had to get fixed was fixed rapidly, and when once the entire electricity went down apparently because of humidity we had someone to fix it within a few hours after I called Scott Fraser. We've been here for a year and so far Scott Fraser's service was very good. We're not from the UK so I cannot comment on the fees they charge as I can't compare it with anything, or with the fact that I asked them to look into the poss... read full review

Zoe has been a fantastic estate agent to us at Castle Mews. We have been in this property since last August. Upon finding this property, Zoe led us through the signing up process efficiently and informatively. We were also presented with a really detailed synopsis of the bill providers, and what kind of figures to expect.
Throughout the year, if we have had questions regarding the flat, Zoe has been happy to help. Therefore, we really have had a problem free year! We have always felt as if we w... read full review

Excellent service - would use and recommend them anytime for the following reasons:

We thought our complicated sale and purchase were impossible, especially as we were working abroad at the time, but Scott Fraser managed to do it for us. The vision and energy of Nicola Horner in the Summertown office was crucial, as was her ability to stay in touch with us and her swiftness in dealing with questions and we are very grateful.... read full review

We have not worked with Scott Fraser for very long, but so far they have provided professional and efficient service. We live overseas so we needed a trustworthy company to manage property. So far we are not disappointed and we feel confident that our property is being managed well and that we are dealing with honest staff members.... read full review

On the negative side, in the 10+ years I\'ve been letting through Scott Fraser, I\'ve had repeated occasions to complain that, below M.D. level, I feel I\'ve ben dealing with individuals, not members of a team. For instance, when I ask each new member \'how many replacement baths have I needed over the period of our association?\'\', I have never got an immediate answer. Do S-F understand the \'planned maintenance\' concept?
On the positive side I admire the successful expansion of this co... read full review

The worst letting agency I have ever dealt with. They have very high application fees, as well as other fees associated with the tenancy that are beyond anything charged by other oxford letting agencies. These high fees are not justified by their service, which was just about adequate. I do not recommend them at all, I think their letting practice is unfair and borders on extortion. At the end of our tenancy we spent a weekend cleaning the house to the point that it was spotless. They still forc... read full review
